letra de viva la vida (the voice performance) - girl named tom
[verse 1]
i used to rule the world
seas would rise when i gave the word
now in the morning, i sleep alone
sweep the streets i used to own
[verse 2]
i used to roll the dice
feel the fear in my enemy’s eyes
listened as the crowd would sing
now the old king is dead, long live the king
[pre-chorus]
one minute i held the key
next, the walls were closed on me
i discovered that my castles stand
upon pillars of salt and pillars of sand
[chorus]
i hear jerusalem bells a-ringing
roman cavalry choirs are singing
be my mirror, my sword and shield
my missionaries in a foreign field
for some reason, i can’t explain
once you go , there was never
never an honest word
and that was when i ruled the world
[verse 3]
it was a wicked and wild wind
blew down the doors to let me in
shattered windows and the sound of drums
people couldn’t believe what i’d become
[pre-chorus]
revolutionaries wait
for my head on a silver plate
just a puppet on a lonely string
oh, who would ever want to be the king?
oh, oh whoa
[chorus]
i hear jerusalem bells a-ringing
roman cavalry choirs are singing
be my mirror, my sword and shield
my missionaries in a foreign field
for some reason, i can’t explain
i know saint peter won’t call my name
never an honest word
that was when i ruled the world
[outro]
ooh (ooh, ooh)
ooh (ooh,ooh)
ooh (ooh,ooh)
